Antonio Cromartie knows the Jets' defense is built around the front seven. It's a signature of a Todd Bowles-coached team, said the cornerback, who played for Bowles last year with the Arizona Cardinals.
The focus is different from when Cromartie played for Rex Ryan's Jets from 2010-13. He said Ryan's defense featured two-gap schemes. Now, the defense allows for more pressure on the quarterback and uses speed to counter the runs.
"It's fun -- actually, it should be more fun for the front seven than it is for the secondary because we're going to be in a lot of cover one," Cromartie playfully said Tuesday at Jets training camp.
